Okay, I think that we've answered this question before, but perhaps you misunderstood what we were saying. In order to compile a Euphoria program into an executable, stand alone file, you need the program which "binds" your Euphoria code to the interpreter. Now then, please keep in mind that a good chunk of Mr. & Mrs. Craig's income comes from the development of Euphoria. He spends a lot of time developing Euphoria so that we can use it. So, while the basic setup is free, he asks that we pay for some of the more advanced features, such as the ability to bind programs -- what you are wanting to do. When you buy the complete edition, it will have the files that you are looking for. Many of us have bought the complete edition, so we have the files. However, we have promised Mr. Craig that we will not give them out, because doing so would be like stealing money from him. The complete edition is not all that much. So, if you want these files, you will need to go here: http://www.rapideuphoria.com/reg.htm >From there, you'll be able to see how much it costs to buy whichever edition >you want. Trust me, I bought the complete edition a little over a year ago, and it has had a ten-fold return for me. It is well worth it!!!! Travis Beaty Evans, Colorado.

You have to pay for the feature to create .EXE files. It is not in the public domain Euphoria. The price is very reasonable, IMHO. Some other benefits come with this ability: you can shroud the programs, you get a profiling facility, and run time errors for programs with more than 300 sentences point to the type and place of the error. You may consult further details in the documents that come with the public domain version of Euphoria. ----- Original Message ----- From: <galaharsh at rediffmail.com> To: "EUforum" <EUforum at topica.com> Subject: Re help require files hi i am harsh i am new to euphoria and programming too i really david, jiri and others for oustanding contribution for the development for this marvellous language. i welcome you to send me as mu ch info on programming i am currently want to design application such as database , internet and graphics in dos32 environment. i would be grateful if some one to send me the files to compile into one EXE file (Creating standalone applications). thanking you euphoria users harsh gala On Sat, 17 Nov 2001 David Cuny wrote : > > Kat wrote: > > >> Is there a specific part of the API you are > referring to? > > > > Since the non-portable calls were not named, i was > looking > > at them as un-named gotchas. > > I asked that poorly.
